- Lot Description
Lucien Clergue was a French photographer and co-founder of the renowned photography festival, Rencontres d'Arles. He was born on August 14, 1934, in Arles, France, and passed away on November 15, 2014. Clergue began his photography journey at an early age, and by the age of 18, he had already started documenting life in his hometown of Arles. He became recognized for his distinctive style, capturing images that often combined elements of surrealism and abstraction with a focus on light and shadow. One of Clergue's most notable bodies of work is his extensive series of photographs featuring the female form, particularly nudes. His photographs of the human body were celebrated for their elegance and sensitivity, and he collaborated with renowned artists such as Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau on various projects. In 1969, Clergue co-founded the Rencontres d'Arles, an annual photography festival that has since become one of the most important photography events in the world. The festival showcases a wide range of photography styles and attracts photographers, artists, and enthusiasts from around the globe.Throughout his career, Lucien Clergue received numerous awards and honors for his contributions to photography, including being appointed as the official photographer of the city of Arles. His photographs have been exhibited in major museums and galleries worldwide, and his work continues to be influential in the realm of contemporary photography. Lucien Clergue's artistic legacy not only resides in his own photographs but also in his dedication to promoting and advancing the medium. Through his co-founding of Rencontres d'Arles, he provided a platform for photographers to showcase their work and fostered the growth and appreciation of photography as an art form.
